Presentation

[Operator]

Greetings and welcome to LivePerson Q3 2024 earnings conference call. At this time, all participants are in a listen-only mode. A brief question-and-answer session will follow the formal presentation. If anyone should require operator assistance during the conference, please press star zero on your telephone keypad. As a reminder, this conference is being recorded. It is now my pleasure to introduce your host, Mr. Jon Perachio, Senior Director of Investor Relations. Thank you, Mr. Perachio. You may begin.

[Jon Perachio, Senior Director of Investor Relations at LivePerson]

Thank you. Joining me on today's call is John Sabino, CEO, and John Collins, CFO and COO. Please note that during today's call, we will make forward-looking statements, which are predictions, projections, and other statements about future results. These statements are based on our current expectations and assumptions as of today, November 7, 2024, and are subject to risks and uncertainties.

[Jon Perachio, Senior Director of Investor Relations at LivePerson]

Actual results may differ materially due to various factors, including those described in today's earnings press release and in the comments made during this conference call, as well as in 10-Ks, 10-Qs, and other reports we file with the SEC. We assume no obligation to update any forward-looking statements. Also, during this call, we'll discuss certain non-GAAP financial measures. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures is included in today's earnings press release. Both the press release and the supplemental slides, which include highlights for the quarter, are available on the Investor Relations section of LivePerson's website, ir.liveperson.com. With that, I'll turn the call over to LivePerson CEO, John Sabino.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

Thank you so much, Jon, and thank you all for joining us today. Before getting into our results and strategy, let me share a high-level update on our business. Customers view LivePerson as a trusted partner to seamlessly orchestrate, automate, analyze, and personalize their digital conversations. This leads to significant return on investment through improvement in operational efficiency and stronger relationships with their end customers.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

Recently, at our Spark Customer Conference, we unveiled a unified omnichannel solution that seamlessly integrates digital invoice interactions. These enhanced capabilities elevate LivePerson from a trusted digital partner to a strategic partner for all channels. Customers can now apply our best-in-class digital experience to their voice conversations with a consistent AI-powered automation capability. This drives increasingly more value for our customers by bringing our capabilities and outcomes to a larger share of their conversational volume.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

Furthermore, brands can innovate over the top of their existing infrastructure without reliance on a risky multi-year CCaaS migration. With solutions now available, our strategic partnership with Avaya is beginning to translate into bookings and pipeline momentum. This includes a joint new logo win with a large retail bank, a direct new logo win with a Fortune 200 insurer, and a large joint renewal with a Fortune 50 logistics company.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

I will provide more detail on the momentum here later in my remarks. In addition, the strategic changes we have made to better serve customers are resonating. Many customers have shared that LivePerson has become much easier to do business with. We now offer simpler and more competitive pricing and packaging, as well as allowing customers to use LivePerson's leading digital capabilities within an integrated best-of-breed solution.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

I am confident that our customer-centric approach and ongoing commitment to enhancing our capabilities will position LivePerson as the preferred partner for enterprise digital transformation. While it's still early days in our turnaround, we're beginning to see improvements in sequential bookings that John Collins and I will discuss in greater detail. Now, let me discuss our high-level Q3 results. Revenue in Q3 was $74.2 million, above the high end of our guidance range, mainly driven by successful efforts and retention during the quarter.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

And Adjusted EBITDA was $7.3 million, also above the high end of our guidance range, driven by the actions we have taken thus far to right-size our cost structure. John Collins will provide more detail about our financial results in his section, but I want to point out that these results and the maintenance of our full-year guidance midpoints represent the third consecutive quarter of execution.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

Now, I would like to provide additional detail on the progress of our transformation strategy. First, let's discuss our product. At our recent Spark Customer Event, we announced several innovative solutions. We launched a Unified Omnichannel Workspace that integrates third-party voice providers like Avaya into LivePerson's best-in-class Agent Workspace. By transcribing calls in real time, brands benefit from our AI capabilities, such as Copilot Assist and automated summaries for their voice conversations.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

The voice conversations integrate seamlessly with Analytics Studio, unifying both speech and text-based conversations into rich, actionable data. Our customers can now analyze customer journeys and coach agents across all channels. Many contact centers do remain on-premise due to the complexity and cost of migrating to cloud, with legacy systems deeply embedded in their operations.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

By integrating with on-premise and cloud voice vendors, LivePerson enables brands to bring digital, AI, and advanced analytics to their contact center without disrupting their existing operations. This gives customers the flexibility and agility to move to the cloud on their own terms and timelines. We also enhanced the administrative experience for our Copilot products. We launched a self-service portal for brands to test and tune their experiences.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

Now, customers can quickly customize AI models to meet their unique business needs. Additionally, we enhanced our reporting capabilities to connect these Copilot experiences to outcomes. This enables customers to measure the real impact of specific generative AI use cases on their operations. These enhancements are critical as generative AI usage is growing rapidly across our customer base.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

In Q3, we saw a 14% sequential increase in the number of clients leveraging our generative AI capabilities, and a 40% sequential increase in conversations using our Generative AI Suite. Now, let me share a few examples of this. Let's start with Frost Bank, which is known for premium, human-first customer care. LivePerson's Copilot solution enables their human agents to respond in less than a minute to hundreds of thousands of conversations annually, resulting in a consistent 91% customer satisfaction score.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

Then there's Signet Jewelers, the world's largest retailer of diamond jewelry. Our AI is trusted by Signet to help their customers navigate one of their most stressful and expensive purchases in their lives. Using LivePerson's AI-powered Agent Assist, Smart Rewrite, and Summarization capabilities, Signet's sales agents orchestrate highly personalized buying experiences that increase the average order value while achieving a 90% customer satisfaction score along the way.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

Next is Najm, a Saudi Arabian vehicle insurer. After years of using voice as their only support channel, Najm turned to LivePerson to launch AI agents in WhatsApp. LivePerson's AI agents have reduced response times by 92% and enhanced personalization across millions of annual interactions, lowering Najm's cost by over 60% while improving retention rates. Finally, one of the world's largest health insurance providers is accelerating digital sales with LivePerson.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

They use AI for external customer-facing and internal agent-facing use cases, with a variety of AI agents assisting consumers and agents at various stages of the customer lifecycle. LivePerson's solutions have helped them achieve 222% year-over-year growth in digital sales, with an 86% customer satisfaction rate. Over the next several quarters, LivePerson's innovations will remain focused on these core areas.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

We plan to expand our voice partnerships, increase generative AI use cases, and enhance our digital channel capabilities, and double down on unified analytics. These investments will further enable brands to analyze, orchestrate, automate, and personalize conversations at scale across any channel. Now, I'd like to update you on our progress in go-to-market. We're beginning to see momentum in our Bronze, Silver, and Gold pricing and packaging strategy.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

In Q3, we saw a significant increase in deals closed with our new pricing and expect that to increase into Q4. In fact, the majority of our new logo pipeline has already moved to new pricing and packaging. We are starting to see the intended results with larger deals and shorter sales cycles. For example, a leading sporting goods retailer adopted our Gold package based on a successful pilot of our Generative AI Suite.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

This resulted in a significant renewal and upsell. As mentioned earlier, our expanding partnership with Avaya has already resulted in our first new logo win together. One of the largest privately held banks in the U.S. chose our integrated solution. It helps them accelerate value and innovation while avoiding the risks and costs and delays associated with a full migration of mission-critical systems. This is our key to our value proposition.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

Additionally, we secured a new logo win with a Fortune 200 insurer looking to leverage the same integrated solution, and a renewal through our Avaya relationship with a Fortune 50 logistics company for an ACV of nearly $1 million. We're also seeing strong pipeline in the early access program for our unified workspace from a number of additional Fortune 500 companies. Looking ahead, we plan to integrate with more on-premise and cloud voice platforms like Cisco and Amazon Connect.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

We're seeing the start of real momentum, but I want to be clear that this is just the beginning of our omnichannel journey and that it will take time for this to become a material source of revenue. To conclude, I want to reiterate that we delivered on our expectations we set in the last earnings call. We have continued to innovate on our product by adding unified experiences for voice and messaging, enhancing our current analytics suite, and growing our enterprise generative AI adoption.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

We have also continued to make strides in our go-to-market by setting the foundations to reignite growth and increase adoption of our new pricing and packaging options. And finally, driven by our product innovation and key partnerships, we have continued to advance our omnichannel strategy with our solution now deployed and sales momentum building.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

These positive developments in both product and go-to-market show our continued progress on our strategy. That being said, there is still progress to be made to get us back to profitable growth. Before I turn the call over to our CFO and COO, John Collins, to discuss our financials in detail and guidance for the remainder of the year, I would like to provide an early view of our expectations for bookings and churn in 2025. As we discussed in the past two quarters, aligning our operations with industry best practices has translated to sequential improvement in bookings and greater visibility into addressable churn risks.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

While our expectations for retention rates continue to steadily improve as we look forward to future renewal cycles, we do see heightened risk for the remainder of the current renewal cycle with customers who are likely making their renewal decisions before we install our new customer success motion. The last of these customers are slated to renew in the fourth quarter of this year and the first quarter of next year.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

As a result, we currently expect attrition to continue into the first half of 2025, offsetting expected revenue gains from sequential bookings improvement, with the transition towards positive net new ARR expected in the second half of 2025. That said, I believe this near-term churn is largely the result of the legacy issues in the business that I have been focused on since the day I joined LivePerson.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

Regarding new bookings trends, we expect to see eight-figure bookings in the fourth quarter, and early indications suggest that we should be able to maintain that bookings level through the first quarter of 2025. We'll provide a more detailed update on our 2025 expectations on the next earnings call, but we felt it was important to provide you with this improved visibility today. So now, let me hand over the call to John Collins. John?

[John Collins, CFO and COO at LivePerson]

Thanks, John. I'll begin with a brief update on customer wins, followed by a discussion of our financial performance and guidance. In terms of deals and significant customer wins in the third quarter, we delivered another quarter of sequential improvement. We signed 44 deals, including nine new logos and 35 expansions and renewals. The total number of deals was up 19% from the second quarter, and total deal value was up 22%.

[John Collins, CFO and COO at LivePerson]

Significant renewals and expansions included a seven-figure deal with a large Australian financial services company, a seven-figure deal with one of the world's largest health insurance providers, and a high six-figure deal with another large health insurance provider. New logo wins included a leading fast casual restaurant company, a U.S.-based private retail bank, a Fortune 200 insurer, a Fortune 50 logistics company, and I'll highlight, as John did, that the last three of these were tied to our voice integration with Avaya. Consistent with our expectations, we have improved deal metrics every quarter this year, and we expect that momentum to carry forward this quarter.

[John Collins, CFO and COO at LivePerson]

We are currently tracking two double-digit bookings, which would be a first since the fourth quarter of 2023. As for our third quarter financial results, total revenue was $74.2 million, above the high end of our guidance range. The improvement over expectations was due to the timing of deals and lower-than-expected customer churn in the quarter. Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter was above the high end of our guidance range at $7.3 million, driven primarily by the same factors contributing to higher revenue.

[John Collins, CFO and COO at LivePerson]

Revenue from B2B hosted services was $62.7 million, down 27% year-over-year. B2B Core Recurring Revenue was $68.8 million, or 93% of total revenue, down 21% year-over-year. As previously discussed, these year-over-year declines were driven primarily by customer cancellations and downsells this year. Further segmenting revenue, professional services revenue was $11.6 million, down 26% year-over-year. From a geographic perspective, U.S. revenue was $49.4 million, and international revenue was $24.9 million, or 67% and 33% of total revenue, respectively. Average revenue per customer was $630,000, up 6% year-over-year, driven in part by expansions with our largest customers and in part by customer churn.

[John Collins, CFO and COO at LivePerson]

RPO declined to $256 million, consistent with the same factors driving the declines in revenue. Net revenue retention was 79% in the third quarter, compared to 83% in the second quarter. Again, given the size and timing of customer cancellations in 2024, we expect revenue to decline sequentially through the fourth quarter and into 2025, a trend that I will elaborate on shortly. Finally, in terms of cash, we ended the third quarter with $142 million of cash on the balance sheet, inclusive of the proceeds from the previously closed transaction with Lynrock Lake. In terms of revenue guidance for the full year 2024, we are maintaining the midpoint but tightening our range to $305 million-$310 million. As for B2B Core Recurring Revenue, we continue to expect it to be approximately 92% of total revenue for the full year.

[John Collins, CFO and COO at LivePerson]

We are also maintaining our midpoint for adjusted EBITDA guidance, but narrowing the range to $18 million-$23 million. Consistent with prior commentary, we also continue to expect the B2B business to be free cash flow positive for the full year. The implication for revenue in the fourth quarter is a range of $65.7 million-$70.7 million. We expect B2B Core Recurring Revenue to equal approximately 93% of total revenue. As for adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter, we expect a range of $2.1 million-$7.1 million. Before leaving the topic of guidance, I'd like to build on John's earlier remarks on 2025.

[John Collins, CFO and COO at LivePerson]

While we do not typically provide commentary on the next fiscal year without the benefit of the fourth quarter close and the first quarter trends, given the importance of growth to our turnaround strategy, we want to provide a few comments on key trends we are currently seeing in the business. We now expect annualized bookings to exceed annualized churn beginning in the second half of 2025.

[John Collins, CFO and COO at LivePerson]

It follows that revenue is also expected to continue declining sequentially, but at a slower and slower rate before reaching a growth inflection point by the end of 2025. This expected timing for positive net new ARR is driven by two primary factors. First, based on today's information, we expect our newly installed customer success motion to have a greater impact on future renewal cycles, reflecting customer renewal decisions that we are actively influencing today.

[John Collins, CFO and COO at LivePerson]

Comparatively, we believe we have a limited ability to influence the remainder of our current renewal cycle, which reflects decisions customers likely made well in advance of the renewal events that are occurring this quarter and in the first quarter of next year. As a result, we continue to expect significant risk of customer attrition in the fourth quarter and the first quarter as we complete the current renewal cycle.

[John Collins, CFO and COO at LivePerson]

On the upside, the second factor driving this updated view is the building momentum in our sales motion. Consistent with our expectations, we have sequentially improved bookings every quarter this year, and the fourth quarter is currently tracking to double digits, which again would be a first in 2024. Importantly, leading indicators such as pipeline generation and rep productivity suggest we are also currently tracking to double digits in the first quarter of 2025.

[John Collins, CFO and COO at LivePerson]

Before taking questions, I'd like to briefly summarize a few key points. We have restructured the business to focus on its core products and customers, and we continue to right-size the cost structure to generate positive free cash flow despite the anticipated near-term decline in revenue. We continue to work through a challenging renewal cycle driven by customer decisions made during a period of significant corporate instability and prior to the leadership and operational changes implemented this year, thanks to which we now have line of sight to renewal rates that should approach industry norms in the second half of 2025. At the same time, sequential growth in bookings each quarter, including tracking to double digits this quarter and next, implies both continued demand for our product and that we now have a sales motion to consistently address that demand. And with that, Operator, we can now move to Q&A.

[Operator]

Thank you. We will now be conducting a question-and-answer session. If you would like to ask a question, please press star one on your telephone keypad. A confirmation tone will indicate your line is in the question queue. You may press star two if you would like to remove your questions from the queue. For participants using speaker equipment, it may be necessary to pick up your handset before pressing the star keys. One moment, please, while we poll for questions. The first question comes from the line of Jeff Van Rhee with Craig-Hallum Capital Group. Please go ahead.

[Jeff Van Rhee, Partner and Senior Research Analyst at Craig-Hallum Capital Group]

Great. Thanks. Thanks for taking my questions. Hey, guys. So several, maybe to John, ask John, obviously a pretty substantial push here in terms of the expectations around ARR bottoming. And it sounds like in the renewals engagement with customers, ultimately, there was just less ability to offset churn than you suspected maybe 90 days or 180 days ago. Just talk a little bit more about that. You obviously, at that point, had visited 125, 150, I forget the number of the top customers, but it sounds like since then something got a little more challenging. Just expand a bit there, if you would.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

Yeah. So a lot of this when we first stepped in, Jeff, a lot of this came with some uncertainty of how far we could see out into future quarters. And I think we've really dialed in our health scoring and adoption scoring, and that's giving greater insight into the risk that's out there. In the case of what we're seeing ahead of us, there's one or two renewals that we were seeing that we were hoping that we could turn around, and ultimately, we don't think that we're going to be able to.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

And a lot of that had to do with some of the instability issues we've had in the past. So I think it's us being able to refine what we're seeing and after interacting with the customers substantially, realizing that we're probably not going to be able to influence their decision as they're coming up. So I don't think it's anything that's a material change.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

I think this is us, based on best available data, now refining what we're seeing. And lastly, as I said before, it was going to take quarters to turn this around. We're still in that renewal cycle. I think maybe you and I have actually spoken about this in the past. We have to get through a full renewal cycle before I think we've gotten most of the risk out of the system. So that's what we're seeing, and we should be through that by the end of Q1, going into the end of Q2 next year.

[Jeff Van Rhee, Partner and Senior Research Analyst at Craig-Hallum Capital Group]

Okay. And then on the new sales motion, just talk about the progress there, I guess, relative to expectations. I mean, it does sound like to John, the other John's commentary, you're going to get to double-digit bookings or bookings growth, I think, is what he commented the next few quarters. But how does that compare to your expectations again a quarter or two ago? Is that ramping as fast as you expected?

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

It's ramping as fast as I expected, if not a little bit faster. So again, this is that offset between what you would call some of the churn that's there and your bookings that you're trying to speed up. And I will say, Andy has hit the ground running. The pricing and packaging is actually shrinking deal cycle times and expanding the sizes of the deals that we're seeing. So things are moving in the right direction. And I think that the leadership that we've brought in, the changes that we've made, are starting to bear fruit. That, in addition to the Avaya partnership, is moving forward in a steady fashion. This is at least where we expected it.

[Operator]

Thank you. Mr. Rhee, please fall back in the queue for more questions. Next question comes from the line of Mike Latimore with Northland Capital Markets. Please go ahead.

[Vijay Devar, Equity Research Analyst at Northland Capital Markets]

Hey, hi. This is Vijay Devar for Mike Latimore. A couple of questions from my side. First one on the new logo wins. Could you talk about what are the main use cases you're seeing?

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

There are a number. JC, I'll jump in on this.

[John Collins, CFO and COO at LivePerson]

Sure. I'm happy to get started. Yeah. Sorry, John. Would you like me to get started here?

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

Yeah. Go ahead, JC. I'm sorry. Let me jump in for you.

[John Collins, CFO and COO at LivePerson]

Yeah. Sure. So we have, in terms of some of the new logos that we mentioned, that clearly one of the themes is the integration with voice, and so providing unified analytics across both of those channels. In the case of the logistics company that we highlighted, there's ticketing involved, case management, proactive outreach, and the like.

[John Collins, CFO and COO at LivePerson]

As John highlighted in his prepared remarks with respect to some of the expansions and wins within existing accounts, particularly with healthcare, we're both increasing the rate of service as well as adding a sales use case that allows agents at the customer to win more business, increase revenue through the utilization of our platform. Of course, generative AI, as was highlighted, is a key thread across all customer wins, and the usage of generative AI on the platform has been increasing significantly on a sequential basis.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

Yeah. I'd like to add a little bit, specifically highlighting what we're seeing, which is expanded use cases supporting the customer journey just beyond customer care. We're starting to see customers use our capabilities in generative AI and Copilot and summarization capabilities to drive commercial opportunities.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

Additionally, the Avaya partnership is allowing us to expand conversations with BPOs and other partners that are looking to go beyond just the momentum of being a cost center with customer care, but also looking at how you can turn some of these customer care capabilities into possible revenue-generating opportunities. So we're seeing not only the use case expansion in terms of the use of our product, we're also targeting other providers and partners to see if they can offer more value to their end customers through the services they provide.

[Vijay Devar, Equity Research Analyst at Northland Capital Markets]

Great. On the seven-figure deals, could you talk a little bit deeper into who were the main competitors and what were the key value adds that really ensured you won those deals?

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

I'm sorry. Can you repeat the question? I'm just having trouble understanding it.

[John Collins, CFO and COO at LivePerson]

I heard that.

[Vijay Devar, Equity Research Analyst at Northland Capital Markets]

With those seven-figure deals, I was just wondering if you can expand a little further in terms of who were the main competitors and what are the key value adds that really enabled the clients to kind of really choose LivePerson over anybody else?

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

Yeah. So to jump in really quick on this, our competitor base has not shifted. We see in most RFPs the same type of competitors. We see unified CCaaS providers. We see sales automation and cloud platform players coming into the space. And we also see social platform vendors in the space. So our competitor base is relatively consistent. And I will say quarter over quarter, we have not seen loss rate change against these competitors. If anything, we're seeing them stabilize and move in our favor.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

And now, as far as the commentary around the larger $1 million customers, and JC, please add additional data here if I got it right. We're seeing our partnership allowing customers the value prop that we're bringing forward is that they don't have to go through that full CCaaS migration, and we're able to offer them more capability, essentially a disruption, innovation without disruption.

[John Sabino, CEO at LivePerson]

So the value prop is that they can add our Copilot and best-in-breed Agent Workspace and digital capabilities to their current architectural footprint without having to go through the layers of a CCaaS migration. And again, you see the similar players over and over again. And I will say that we have been able to compete successfully against some of them, which is Genesys and Salesforce.

[John Collins, CFO and COO at LivePerson]

Yeah. And I would say just to add that in the context of the two seven-figure deals that we highlighted in the prepared remarks, both Genesys and Salesforce were involved and potential options for the customer.

[Vijay Devar, Equity Research Analyst at Northland Capital Markets]

Thank you, JC. That's it.

[John Collins, CFO and COO at LivePerson]

Thank you.

[Operator]

Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, all right. We have reached the end of our call. Thank you for joining us today. Thank you.
